The State Of The GTK+ File Selector

Posted by timothy on from the niggly-details dept.

Anonymous BillyGoat writes "The next stable release of GTK+ (from the 2.4x series) will have a new file selector, and of recent, a lot of activity has been going on around that. One of the GNOME artmasters, Tigert, has released a mockup of the new file selector and the GTK developers are busy working towards that. Meanwhile the people from OSNews have some other ideas, while an OSNews reader has made even better mockups."

    It's a shame all of them just look like bad ripoff's of what windows has had for a while. And the one designed by Eugenia at osnews is just retarded. File selectors should be longer horizontally since file names can be long. Having something that is taller than it is long is just dumb, there just isn't a polite way to say it.
